Today we went into Hamburg. Jonathan and I were fortunate once again to have Anne as our guide. I was still feeling quite tired, and found it sort of hard to focus still from our all-nighter a few nights ago. But I was still excited for the day that would come. On our way there we stopped by this castle in Ahrensburg. Because the day was a bit cold and windy, we stopped at a little cafe for coffee and cake (and hot chocolate). It just happened to be the same caf
Luebeck and Kegeln in Hammoor
An awesome day filled with fun, food, and friends. Luebeck, Germany is the place to go for delicious marzipan.
The Tower of London and Jack The Ripper
Live Lobster at Borough Market? The torture chamber at the Tower of London? We left the flat and headed to Monument station, and walked across London Bridge.

Carrie’s Visited Countries
I thought that since I’d posted how many states I’ve visited, I should post my countries visited too. Again, in order for me to have visited the country, I had to spend at least one night there (otherwise I could…
Kevin’s Climbing Everest!
Kevin Cherilla, our leader when we climbed Kilimanjaro, is on Everest now. He put together a blog so that we could read about his experiences while trying to summit the tallest mountain in the world. It really is a fun…
